Take a two hour cruise via M/S Rosella of Viking Line from Mariehamn to Kapellskär on the outskirts of Norrtälje just north of Stockholm in Sweden.
Lots of things to do or see are available onboard the passenger cruise ship. You can do your tax-free shopping for perfumes, cosmetics, leather goods, clothings, chocolates, liquor, wines, beer and cigarettes at the tax free shop. You may watch the popular local artists sing or perfom or you may just dance your evening away at the nightclub.
For those who are very fond of gambling, there are never short of slot machines for you to pass your time. For those who are hungry and thirsty several cafés, bars and restaurants are available onboard for you to chill out such as the popular Seaside Café. Other facilities onboard include conference and meeting rooms, video arcades, sun deck and cabins. Leave a Comment

Take the opportunity to grill your fresh food when you are visiting Mariehamn on your vacation! Locations for grill are provided along the beach just outside the city center for the convenience of local and foreign picknickers and tourists. In some locations, firewoods are even provided complete with axes. Please do not litter the grill area after enjoying your food and drink. Waste disposal bins are usually provided at all grill locations. Please make sure that fires at the grill are completely extinguished before you leave the area. Leave a Comment

 Bengtsk?r; Finland by sinoda
Leaving Hanko at 10 o'clock in the morning the ship arrives at 1130 - two hours stay and then back to Hanko.
You may explore the whole island, which is rather small, including the tower and the catacombs in the rock.
You might even take a dip in the sea if you like to.
There is even the possibility of staying over, but be sure to book in advance! Leave a Comment

Bengtskär`s lighthouse is one of the biggest and in best condition lighthouses in Finland.
At winter-spring time you can get there by helicopter, spend a night there(there is a small reastaurant), enjoy your breakfast and fly back to mainland.
Can you imagine to be on the small island, surrounded by sea and ice, freezing breeze and some seagulls? Well, neither do i, so it has to be done.
The price for this is 240-270 EUR.
